scrapbusters day

This was the 3rd scrapbuster day we have had.  Wanda finds really easy block patterns that lend themselves well to being made with scraps.  We each do a block and then put them all together to see what a quilt would look like made with these block.  It is quite educational.We learned a really fast method of making half square triangles.  You start with 2 equal sized squares of fabric.  Sew them all around the outside, with right sides together and then cut them in half length wise and width wise and you wind up with 4 half square triangles.

1244 pieces

These baggies contain 1244 little cut out pieces of fabric.  They are for a mystery quilt and took about two weeks to finish cutting out.  I have now finished step l and used up about 350 of these pieces making 96 flying geese blocks.
